CM11 KitKat ROM

After flashing CM11 KitKat ROM, my phone no longer works, sdcard not detected, no camera app, gallery not working as well. I can't use my phone. Hopefully flashing the stock firmware via Odin will save my phone. I'm downloading the stock firmware as of this writing, thanks for the link, download speed is fast. I'm from Philippines, does it matter if I flash the stock ROM for India?

Downloading the stock ROM for Philippines is taking a lot of time.

I'll get back to you after I flash the stock ROM for India.

Its just confusing can u help me pls. Thanks.
[Samsung Galaxy Core.] LoneVipers:

Philippines (Globe) - GLB

Philippines (Open Line) - XTC

So that i wont mess up with my phone if things got wrong

We use WP7.x and Android NativeSD , we will have three Partitions of the SD memory:

1 - FAT32 - External SDcard ( available for Android)

2 - Ext4 - NativeSD

3 - WP - unallocated

Windows Phone can not see the external memory SDcard FAT32, which is available only for Android,

But I aspire the ability to be used in both systems Android & WP,

If only we used WP, ​​we get the Storage Card 200MB, but it will be hidden from the WP in any change in size!!!

I made several attempts

I finally succeeded by making the external memory SDcard readable for both systems and the size you want

very easy way

Format SDcard partition to NTFS

* If you're using Android & WP and your memory is divided into three sections

1 - Convert Partition 1 "SDcard" to the NTFS format,

Using one of the software division:

MiniTool Partition Wizard Professional Edition

Or EaseUS Partition Master 9.1.1 Home Edition

2 - run Windows Phone - "will read SDcard and re-converted to a special FAT32 (Other)"

Now, the external memory SD (Storage Card) are available in Windows Phone

Of course, remain available for Android, and is available when you enter PC

[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vase_t:
Hi,

I bought a refurbished Nexus 7 3G 32GB from the local Asus shop and received it yesterday. Upon first use I noticed, that I don't have the mobile network settings in the settings app and the nexus would not ask for the sim pin. Installed was JB 4.2.2. So obviously the wrong stock rom was installed. Therefore a reflashed the Nexus with the Nexus Root Toolkit v1.7.5 to the 4.2.2. stock rom (nakasig), giving me back the mobile data settings. However I noticed, that the reception indicator bars at the top of the screen showed no reception at all.

The operator of the sim card I am using uses the GSM 900 band here in Germany. So I switched the sim card to another operator using GSM 900 with the same result. But after installing a third sim card from a GSM 1800 provider everything seems to works fine. Full reception and working internet access. I double checked the APN settings for both GSM 900 operator sim cards and moved around with the nexus to be sure, that the problem is not related to poor coverage. All questioned sim cards work just fine in different devices with full reception within my flat.

For me it looks like the Nexus is not able to use the GSM 900 frequencies at all. I have updated to 4.3 OTA with no improvement (baseband is now 1231_0.18.0_0409).

Is there anything I could do from the software side to fix this, instead of returning the Nexus? Does the Nexus have two separate antennas for GSM850/900 and GSM 1800/1900?

Thanks in advance!

[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Meakii:
Hi all

A bit new to posting in here but am really hoping to receive some help from you all. Last night I installed all the standard USB drivers i.e. Android SDK pack and followed them all as mentioned. Then using the root tool from ChainFire I got to the little android guy after going through the process of unlocking the bootloader and gaining root, but the phone never actually rebooted.

Now when I try to flash the original fastboot files using the WUG kit I get "FAILED: remote: flash write failure" The same is the case with writing the boot img and recovery img. See attached.

I can put the phone into Fastboot mode only and it says lock state is "unlocked" but it would seem that I can no longer write anything to the internal disk as nothing will work or boot. I also get a status on my PC saying that the driver QHSUSB_Bulk could not be found.

Has anybody had a similar problem to this? Is there any way to somehow get this working again? And if I RMA with Google will they say my warranty is voided now that it says the lock state in Fastboot is unlocked?

Many thanks in advance guys any help is appreciated.

Thanks have tried flashing them manually but still the same error saying FAILED: remote: flash write failure

It as if nothing can be written to the phone at all.

Yea fastboot seems to work fine but sorry what do you mean by what ouput does fastboot devices have?

Thanks a lot
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] abaaaabbbb63:
write "Fastboot devices" in CMD while phone is in fastboot.

What happens when you boot in recovery? Try that, and do a factory data reset.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Meakii:
Ok see attached. Also it doesn't allow me to boot into recovery at all. I used the WUG kit to temporarily boot into TWRP and tried a factory reset there but it says there's no ROM installed. It's like everything has been wiped and it can't write anything to the internals to read from. Thanks for you help so far. Any other suggestions?
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] abaaaabbbb63:
Just... stop using toolkits for a second here! These automated processes got you here in the first place.

Try this command:

fastboot erase userdata

Does it succeed?
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Meakii:
Ok ummm see attached. I'm so gutted any further thoughts or advice?
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] abaaaabbbb63:
It seems like a brick. Something got corrupted. I searched far an wide on XDA and other forums, but no one with this problem has found the solution.

It seems that your last chance is RMA.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Meakii:
Ok thanks for your help. How this happens simply rooting a device following step by step instructions having rooted many devices before I'll never know. There was no interrruptions or reasons for this to have happened. Do you think they will take one look at it and say warranty is voided?
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] om22:
Who knows? Try it!

I don´t think the reason was CF-auto root. There must be something wrong with the device´s flash from the beginning. My thoughts are that you´r flash has a corrupted area which surprisingly wasn´t used for the stock factory flash and CF-autoroot triggered it while flashing a specific partition. Maybe i´m completely wrong.

I hope you´ll get it exchanged :good:.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] abaaaabbbb63:
I don't really know what happened. I guess there are always risks when using tools like this. That's why I always recommend rooting using the manual method.

I have no idea how google will react. In theory, a simple unlocked bootloader won't affect warranty. In reality, anything can happen. Good luck, and sorry!
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pert_S:
It's a mystery indeed, it might not be CF but best way is to stay away from toolkits and do it manually.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2507905

Does it respond to anything?

Will it turn on but just get stuck?

If it won't respond to anything at all then I doubt Google would say the warranty is void. They probably wouldn't know since it's dead. :confused:
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Meakii:
Absolutely gutted but thanks so much for your help. I'll report back with Googles response.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] abaaaabbbb63:
It will respond, but the memory won't flash. Major no-fix problem.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Meakii:
Hi nah it only boots into Fastboot mode where it says down the bottom in red "LOCK STATE - unlocked" . Have tried every trick posted on here but it seems that during the rooting process somehow corrupted internal storage meaning it can't write anything to the phone (therefore not being able to reset to factory etc etc).

What a disaster.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] foopy:
Would opening the command prompt window with administrative rights make a difference? Worth a shot.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pert_S:
Oh I see. :(

Well like abaaaabbbb63 said, in theory it shouldn't affect warranty.

They would have to show that unlocking the bootloader caused the fault I presume.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] El Daddy:
Make sure you tell Google that this happened when using a toolkit and a script when asking for a new phone free of charge.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Meakii:
How would that help? I think pleading ignorance to how it happened would probably be best wouldn't it?

Thanks for all the replies.

Please could someone advise me on how to do this without wiping data and root.

Thanks for the link. However, is there not an alternative & quicker method?

A user claims to have updated ota without losing root only by using rootkeeper.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] natispain:
I don´t know, but that method is quick and easy.

You must have the bootloader unlocked, do not have recovery installed, only change the build.prop with rooy explorer (you can try without changing it), keep the root with rootkeeper and update with sony update center.

You can try it with your original 532, I think.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] jeremy.chan:
rooted and on original software (condensed from http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2502185). You do not need unlocked bootloader for this.

1. OTA Rootkeeper - install and protect root

2. Perform OTA to 257

3. Enjoy

If OTA fails

1. TiBu - make full backup of your apps & necessary system apps (wifi locations, SMS, etc)

2. FlashTool - Reinstall 532 FTF

3. Root (vRoot is suspect, but go ahead if you like living dangerously, we all do)

4. OTA Rootkeeper - install and protect root

5. Perform OTA to 257

6. Restore Apps via TiBu

7. Enjoy

* Of course, if you're doing it via OTA failure method, you should make sure all your app config files are exported out and saved (Nova, LightFlow, etc)
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] the duderino:
hey dude do nothing. do not unlock bootloader or anything else. if you have root just ota thats it no need for a rootkeeper or anything else.

can it be any simple than that???
